Description
Glycine is a nonpolar amino acid, the simplest one of the 20 natural amino acids. Glycine is not optically active and has a small side chain. It is essentially involved in the formation of α-helices.
Technical aspects
Glycine is mildly sweet and counteracts the saccharine aftertaste. Glycine is a component of some solutions used in the SDS-PAGE method of protein analysis. It serves as a buffering agent that maintains pH and prevents damage to the sample during electrophoresis.
Glycine is sensitive to antibiotics that target folate, and blood glycine levels drop within a minute of an antibiotic injection. Some antibiotics can degrade more than 90% of Glycine within minutes of administration.
Storage
The shelf life of Glycine is 24 months when stored below 37 °C in a closed container.
Package
Foodcom supplies its Business Partners with Glycine in 25 kg bags.
